    12/28/2003: Was Heisenberg a moral agent or an incompetent bomb-builder? Did he affect a great resistance to Hitler by heading up and secretly sabotaging all Nazi efforts at making a nuclear weapon? The answers to these questions may have been taken by Heisenberg to his grave, but Powers' explorations of the issues reads like a thriller. Well woth reading.
